that's because you never (possibly) heard a $20,000 turntable :-))))))) with a
$5000 cartridge and so on... these things are pretty reasonably priced too --
given what they deliver...

(yes there is a difference, yes many people can hear the differences, a blind
test is all you need to start believing it).

the same with cameras. just tools. just light tight boxes. but whatta damn fine
light tight box an M6 makes..... ;-)))))))))

cheers! this list needs a blow of fresh air!....... (I know, I started this... :-( )

fernando.
